Arena Breakout: Infinite issued 11,856 cheating bans during the enforcement period from August 10 through August 23, 2026. The figures appeared in the game’s August 26 Steam security notice, which also detailed penalties for cheating, griefing, bad behavior, and playing with hackers.

The notice did not provide a separate explanation for the general “Bans” category, so it is best read as the security team’s own line item rather than a figure to combine with the other penalty counts.
Arena Breakout: Infinite maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward rule violations. The security team specifically called out plug-ins, unauthorized applications, and intentionally working with players who use them. Suspicious accounts and historical data are reviewed through the game’s real-time enforcement process, and confirmed violations can result in a new ban or an extension of an existing one.
Players can report suspected rule breaking through the in-game Report function or through the game’s social channels. The security team also published a partially masked list of accounts affected by this enforcement period.
